Typical system times
Ready delay: After switching on, the unit carries out a self-test for 3 s. The system
is ready for operation only after this time.
Risk time according to EN 60947-5-3: If an actuator moves outside the oper-
ating distance, the safety outputs LA and LB on the corresponding safety switch
are deactivated after a maximum of 260 ms.
Difference time: The safety outputs LA and LB switch with a slight time offset.
They have the same signal state at the latest after a difference time of 50 ms.
System times for "restart after fault" and "normal operation"
Example application: UB = 24 V
+LA permanently connected to UB
+ LB switched by control system
